Graphical Information Award City of Roseville’s Parks, Recreation and Library Department and Information Technology Department were awarded the IT Quality Graphic Information Award for the Roseville Historical Walking Tour. The Graphical Information Award is intended to recognize excellence in creating and displaying graphical information. Congratulations to both departments for this achievement.

Excellence in IT Practices AwardIn addition, the IT Department has been graciously awarded the achievement award for Excellence in IT Practices. This award is intended to foster and recognize outstanding governance and operation practices. The submission and evaluation process required the submission of a very detailed questionnaire that examined the practices across ten different subject areas. The submission required not only a direct response to the question but also any supporting material that was appropriate to the questions/topics. The submission was evaluated and feedback given by a panel of three IT Directors. Thank you to all of those who helped put this document together, and an even bigger thank you to our team for all of the outstanding work that you do day-in and day-out. We were given this award as a result of your performance, innovation, and commitment to better our City.

Congratulations to both departments for all of their hard work.
